If you use the parking brake, the new spring will make your brake shoes last longer. The lever that activates the piston doesn't return to the full off position so the shoes drag a wee bit. Some owners in the past lost shoes in a few months when it hung up in combination with the sticky cables. I'm no longer in the GWN so I just use TriFlow on my cable ends. It is so flat here I almost never use the parking brake; the ATX Park cog keeps the car still.
